Weren't Mick's interviews just as vivid and fun as John's up till 1980?
How would John-interviews have been, him being in his mid-70s?
My guess is that they would have been quite similar to Mick's
I guess John still would be able to provide some interesting quotes about Paul.

Probably, but Mick's "I dunno what Keith does. The last I heard was that he was listening to Chuck Berry. I dunno if that's true" was indeed priceless
The problem is that he, without exceptions, has said all of this before.
In another interview (someone posted a link to it on this board, but I wouldn't know how to find it), in response to a question about whether he had any regrets, Jagger said he wished he had met Elvis Presley. He said he didn't because Lennon had told him what a disappointment it had been for him, but that in retrospect he still should have done it while he had the chance.
and its a pretty good update on whats happening with jagger and the stones.live shows,movies,writing songs....you couldnt have read the same things that many times since most of what he's talking about has happened in the last year.
so i'll ask again,what is it that you want?what could he say that would make you feel better about things?
How they rehearse, how they make it work, name a few songs they've tried out, some more about what kind of songs he's writing...
Lots of things, like "the old Jagger" would talk about and joke around with.
I'm not complaining, but Glasto, films, Elvis, 50 & Counting so far and the other stuff I've heard several times before. But then again, I'm a Stones fan...
So true.
So I'll tell you again. I just want my beer, and I found it ... so cheers again

we have a winner-the truth is we spend to much time worrying about these things.
and of course there has to be a loser-sorry but the non-sequiturs about the beer,not funny.i hope your beer doesnt fall as flat as that bit did.
It wasn't meant to be funny, I was very serious
-------------------
Keep On Rolling
Yeah, I heard of that... isnt it some kind of tuna?
A lot of truth! And very funny
Of course he'd say that. First off he could have been speaking to a girl. But even if not...Jagger's pretty camp.
Just watch him with Reg or L. Kravitz.
Jagger is the Stones' 'voice' by now. Not bland for a 70 years old singer it think.

Very little content, as usual. There are so many things Sir Michael won't talk about.
the subtle dig at U2 not having one of their best nights a G'bury, and
Lennon told him not to meet Elvis; interesting.
He is what he is. He doesn't give much in interviews. What's the point in knocking him for being what he is?
It has nothing to do with knocking him, but everything with stating a fact.

what in the hell are you people looking for?? he talked about all kinds of things-
1.what it was like at glastonbury and preparing for it
2.that he went into the crowd and watched artic monkeys to check out sightlines to the stage.
3.that he couldnt remember hyde 69 and only knows it from the movie.
4.what its like onstage-a dangerous place with cables and people throwing things so you have to pay attention.
5.that he was visiting the south during the james brown movie that he was working on.
6.making an elvis biopic
7.that lennon told him not to meet elvis[probably something about meeting your heroes]
8.that he was still writing songs
and that was enough-thank god jagger understands how boring it is to have some windbag celebrity talking and carrying on about their deep inner thoughts and views on the state of the world.

"Oh, I write songs all the time; actually, I was just finishing doing some yesterday."
Could that possibly mean "finishing" as in, finishing some UN finished songs from the past?

It's a bit like actors doing press for a movie, they tell the same story to every reporter. They don't expect everybody to read every interview so this way their "message" will reach everybody.
We are just a bit too obsessed that we read interviews in American, European, Australian and Chinese newspapers

Pretty funny article/interview actually, hehe...and yes, Mick's not taking this too seriously, hence the IORR song, and the fact that he's till doing it. He's the best at what he does, doesn't mean he has to preach or share his thoughts on everything even though I for one wouldn't mind listening in. It's a bit like when they ask all these ridiculous questions to sports stars and everyone plays along.

He hasn't much to say. He isn't a John Lennon. Just a Jagger.
No . . . he isn't a John Lennon, and thank God for that. Since you're having a piss take I'll simply respond with this: Mick isn't full of himself. He doesn't have to talk about how *everyone* should do what he does (an almost *direct* quote from John from his final Playboy interview), he doesn't spend an entire decade of interviews telling everybody what to do, he doesn't pretentiously proclaim himself a working class hero whilst calling everyone else "@#$%& peasants," and last but definitely not least, he has the dignity to not announce in print that "if there is such thing as a genius, I am one." Mick is a *lot* more humble than people give him credit for and doesn't follow his insecurities down a rabbit hole in print like a certain other songwriter from the Stones, not to mention the departed Lennon. I, for one, will take Mick's frosty, detached dignity and voracious appetite for privacy, over Keith and John's asinine arrogance any day of the week. >
A lot of truth! And very funny

Thank you PM for posting this; and fielding some surprising reactions to it.
I actually think Jagger said a good bit. he just has that laconic interview style. he's a pro. Also - I know that w/ Jagger it makes a huge difference if you SEE him say the words.
I guess he assumes we, the readers know how to connect the dots. And therefore, he expects intelligence. I like that.
E.g the Lennon/Elvis remark. Keith probably would have told a colorful, entertaining anecdote of half-truths about how he and the King shot off guns.
Jagger throws out 5 words. He expects the reader to know of the Beatles' disappointing meet with Elvis; the Fender Bass; how it often pays to not meet up with your heroes.
The songwriting: every songwriter knows that for each song used, he probably writes 10, and aborts another 20.
